Help me find a USB adaptor for a PS/2 type plug. Searching online just gets me Playstations! - Lemmy.World

I’m losing my mind. This old graphics tablet connects to the PS/2 port on an old PC for power. There’s a separate serial cable for the actual data connection. I want to supply it power without needing to connect it to a PS/2 port, so an adapter for USB would be ideal. I know others have achieved this but I can’t find the details. Can anyone help? The search results are full of Playstations because it misinterprets the “PS/2” part.

Part number for startech PS2 to usb adapter

Probably won’t work due to the higher power of serial compared to usb though.

Maybe the part I heard about is specially made to account for that too. Hmm. Thanks, I’ll look into it further.
You could always look into a PCIe serial card for the serial port, and the PS2 to usb adapter. Still unsure if it’ll work but it’s pretty cheap stuff to test out
